Groundbreaking set for county office building

September 3, 2013

A groundbreaking ceremony will be held Thursday at 9 a.m. for the future Ward County Office Building in Minot. Ward County Commissioners decided on the date Tuesday morning at their regular commission meeting.

"At this time of year each week is important," said commissioner Jerome Gruenberg, who is also an employee of Mattson Construction in Minot, the firm doing the construction work on the building, on getting started early enough to get cement poured in the foundation before winter comes.
